Gelson Dala and Ary Papel make debuts in Ledman LigaPro
Sporting CP B were outgunned by Portimonense (4-0) this weekend, in Ledman LigaPro matchday 22.
Sitting comfortably at the top of the league table, the hosts were always going to be dangerous in attack and after 17 minutes the ball was in the back of the net for the first time, when Jorge Pires flicked on a cross for Paulinho to finish.
Nine minutes later, Jorge Pires made it two with a well taken bicycle kick.
João de Deus' charges tried to rally and did manage to settle the play and go on the attack, but the hosts were proving clinical in defence and kept chances to a minimum. Debutantes Gelson Dala and Ary Papel were unable to make their mark, but will be a pair to watch in the future.
Portimonense weathered the Alvalade efforts to get back into the game and again took control of proceedings, when Amilton made it 3-0 after a defensive lapse. With a few seconds left on the clock, Ewerton had the simple task of tapping in the rebound from a shot from Ricardo Pessoa and made it 4-0.
